Heading Higher

Read:  Psalm 61 / Proverbs 8 / Exodus 5 / 1 Corinthians 2     

Psalm 61:2,8 Lead me to the rock that is higher than I... that I may daily perform my vows.
Proverbs 8:13,34,35 The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate... Blessed is the man that heareth Me, watching daily at My gates... But he that sinneth against Me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.
Exodus 5:2 And Pharaoh said, Who is the LORD, that I should obey his voice to let Israel go?
1 Corinthians 2:2,7,8 I determined not to know anything... save Jesus Christ, and him crucified... The hidden wisdom... which none of the princes of this world knew.

There is a Rock to where I'm led
Ascending by my Shepherd's hand. 
Still higher daily I will head
As I obey my Lord's command. 

The evil I am taught to hate
I see portrayed in Pharaoh's pride.
I'm heading higher as I wait
On Christ so humbly crucified.
